Abstract
Disclosed herein are systems, methods, and computer program products for providing transaction-consistent snapshots of data stored in or associated with a database. An embodiment operates by receiving, at a source database, an update request to update data associated with a table stored at the source database, and modifying a value of a modification-in-progress data structure corresponding to the table to indicate that a modification is in progress for the table. The embodiment includes updating a value of a commit identification counter and a table time stamp associated with the table to indicate that cached data having a time stamp older than the updated time stamp are invalid. The embodiment further includes modifying the value of the modification-in-progress counter to indicate completion of table modification.
